The tropical low that I mentioned last night has been upgraded to tropical storm Ida and is heading north away from Costa Rica. We are receiving some of its moisture, but Nicaragua and Honduras might get 15 to 25 inches of rain in places. You will probably hear about this in the news if the storm lingers as forecasted. This amount of rainfall over a few days can wreak havoc and people here will quickly remember the destruction in those two countries caused by the copious rains of Hurricane Mitch in 1998. Lets hope it weakens.
